Just finished Castlevania - Lord of Shadow. Gameplay-wise it's not a very good game, lot's of invisible walls everywhere, really restricted camera (in an annoying manner - "you don't want to jump THERE"), inconsistent actions - you can jump on some places and on others not, without visual clues or any logic whatsoever. However, the art and the atmosphere is IMO superb, and that made me go until the end, to the bonus mini-campaign after the main story ends, where you fight some demon who tries to escape hell, or whatever - he is very creatively called "The Forgotten One", but I can tell you, it's one of the most annoying boss fights I have seen, like, ever. The fight drags on for tens of minutes, where you have to repetitively chip away your foe's health, while you dodge his overpowered, unblockable super-attacks. You gradually damage his armor and you have to keep hitting one single spot several times, while his attacks become faster and faster.
I cursed the game several times and rage quit, but finally, I managed to do it. What an exhausting, repetitive drag.
phased to off-topic, seems it would indeed feel more at home there -Kouji San
